Chapter 2 - Locked world

Maiden was standing next to the sword in the stone.

She has seen for the hundredth time how a man trying to pull the sword from the stone.

The sword that was in the stone for centuries.

She watches as the man is trying to pull the sword from stone.

Neither this man was successful.

People were going home and she was left alone to look at the sword in the stone.

She heard a horse galloping in distance.

She looked up and saw the Knight on a black horse.

Knight had black armor on him with purple and red accents.

Knight has jumped off his horse.

He walked over to the sword in the stone and pulled out a sword.

Maiden was thrilled.

She could not believe her eyes what just happened.

Maiden ran towards Knight to get acquainted with him and looked at the sword.

Maiden was enthusiastic over the sword.

Knight showed her sword from all angles.

Suddenly, a few meters from them, Bull appears.

Bull has rushed toward them at full power.

Knight reacted quickly and moved Maiden to the safe side, he insert the sword into the sheath and jumped on the Bull.

The fight was extremely dynamic.

Knight has mastered Bull and chased him off.

Maiden was enthusiastic if somewhat disappointed why Knight did not use the sword.

Maiden asked Knight to join her for tea in her castle.

Knight has accepted the invitation.

They sat in the garden at the castle and slowly drink tea and talked.

Suddenly, next to Maiden appears a big mouse.

Maiden jumped in the air and started to scream.

It was a pretty big mouse.

Knight quickly jumped and threw the mouse out of the castle.

Maiden was a little disappointed why Knight did not use the sword on the mouse.

The two continued to talk comfortably and play a game that Knight suggested that they play.

The game is called 1001 reason.

Maiden was given her best and was a worthy player. 

She played the game bravely to the very end.

In the end, the result was a draw.

The sun began to set down and those two watched the sunset.

Knight told her the story of distant lands.

Maiden, has briefly replied that it is a beautiful story and certainly there is a great land in the distance, but her castle is the most beautiful place in the world and she would never leave.

The night came and it was time for bedtime.

Maiden tucked Knight in the guest room and she went to sleep in her room.

In the morning when she woke up, Knight was gone.

She walked around the whole castle, but Knight she couldn't find.

She waited all day.

Knight did not appear.

The days and weeks passed and, there was no sign of Knight.

Maiden started to begin to feel anger in herself.

She was betrayed.

Deceived.

Abandoned.

She began to hate the Knight.

One morning while she drink tea, to her castle came Imperial Sage.

Imperial Sage gave her a sword that Knight pull out of stone and paper with a message written by Knight.

Imperial Sage briefly explained to Maiden that the Knight was fighting against a huge dragon that attacked Empire.

He added that the dragon had destroyed everything in his path and was on his way to her castle.

Imperial Sage: "Dragon would destroy us all. The whole Empire would fall. No one had the guts to confront the dragon. Knight in black armor has charged at the dragon and fought against the mighty dragon. They killed each other."

Imperial Sage finishes and leaves Maiden castle.

Maiden looked at the sword and then looked at the paper.

On paper, was the poem.

"You saw the sword that is only for a worthy

You've seen my friend Bull

And my good friend the mouse came to our party to entertain us

You did not want to see further

While you were giving a 1001 reasons 

You did not want to look under armor

Inside that armor 

Was a Man "
